Ekadashi 2024: Ekadashi fasting holds great significance in Hinduism. A total of 24 Ekadashis occur in a year, with two falling each month—one on the Krishna Paksha and the other on the Shukla Paksha. This fast is observed for Lord Vishnu, and it is believed that fasting on this day helps eliminate all life's troubles and miseries.


The first Ekadashi of November 2024 holds special importance. It is known as Dev Uthani Ekadashi, marking the day when Lord Vishnu awakens from his four-month-long Yogic sleep. This Ekadashi is considered very auspicious and is believed to bring prosperity and peace to devotees. It is also referred to as Prabodhini Ekadashi or Devatthan Ekadashi. The day signifies the end of the Chaturmas period and the beginning of auspicious and religious activities.
